2-Quinolinecarboxaldehyde participates in a standard Henry reaction when combined with a nitroalkane and catalytic amounts of base. However, water is not readily eliminated from the resulting beta-nitro alcohol intermediate to form the expected nitroalkene. Instead, the elimination of nitrous acid is observed furnishing an unexpected ketone product. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
